SEEDPOD PUBLISHING is a literary/arts collective founded with the brilliant and lovely Kathryn Pope. We wanted to read more of the kind of fiction we enjoy while offering an outlet for new contemporary work to enter the world in this burgeoning realm of digital reading. With Seedpod, we focus on literary fiction and memoir with a particular flavour as well as a free-wheeling selection of 140-character micro-fiction via Twitter.
